Answer:
(3.8, 6.8)
Step-by-step explanation:
Point B:
Has coordinates (x,y)
AB and BC form a 2:3 ratio.
This means that:
We apply this both for the x-coordinate and for the y-coordinate.
x-coordinate:
x-coordinate of A: 3
x-coordinate of C: 5
x-coordinate of B: x
y-coordinate:
y-coordinate of A: 4
y-coordinate of C: 11
y-coordinate of B: y
Thus the correct answer is:
(3.8, 6.8)
First you should set up fractions equal to each other to see the size ratio
8/34 = x/1.2
As to make comparable fractions. Then you would cross multiply in order to get
Divide both sides by 34 and you should get an answer of 0.28m for the model beam.
